Solved: Report automatically sorts on grouped column

Hello,

In RS 10.2.2, I have a report with a sort on a timestamp. When I group another column, it overrides the timestamp sort and sorts the grouped column ascending. Any way to go around this? I don't remember this behaviour in 10.1.1...

select column and click edit sorting layout . under group you will see columns on which have groups. Add column in order in which you want sort to happen under sort list

Thank you. I had tried that before but found this morning that I had to bring the column I wanted sorted to the top of the groupings in the Edit Sorting Layout screen. It worked, problem solved! Thanks again.
